Property code: OC-CUBOT

Situated in the heart of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this characterful cottage provides a welcoming and relaxing stay for extended families or groups of friends holidaying on the North Norfolk coast. The conservation village of Salthouse is a wonderful base with numerous walks from your front door. The shingle beach and marshes are a few minutes away, and a renowned pub and crab shop are at the top of the road, next to the village store. Much loved by walkers, birdwatchers and foodies, this diverse stretch of coast boasts the traditional seaside resorts of Sheringham (5 miles) and Wells-next-the-Sea (11 miles), and abundant nature including seals at Blakeney Point (3.5 miles) and the bird reserve at Cley-next-the-Sea (1.5 miles).

Arranged around an enclosed courtyard, this single-storey property has been fully renovated to a high standard, with plenty of room to spread out and relax. Snuggle up in the spacious, light-filled lounge after a bracing coastal walk, lighting the wood burner on chilly evenings, or gather around the large dining table for family meals and celebrations. The fully equipped kitchen has both an AGA and double electric oven so you can cook up a storm, while the cosy summer room offers a separate space for those wanting a little peace and tranquillity. A couple of shallow steps lead into the bedroom area where there are two double rooms both with en-suite, plus a further double and room with twin zip-and-link beds (that can be arranged as a super-king-size on request), which share a bathroom. The annexe is accessed separately off the courtyard, featuring twin zip-and-link beds (that can be arranged as a super-king-size), a petite kitchen, sofa and en-suite, offering a little privacy from the main house.

The inner courtyard with comfortable seating is a wonderful spot to gather in the evening for outdoor entertaining, or simply enjoy a morning cuppa in the sun.

  • 5 bedrooms – 3 doubles, 2 super-king-size zip-and-links (which can be arranged as twins on request)

A great property, easy walking distance to the coast and the pub! A fabulous base for our group of 8 over New Year, spacious and homely. Fully equipped, and we all loved the AGA, instant heat on those cold winter days. Plenty of great walking from your doorstep, and the slightly larger towns only a short drive away.

We always go to a cottage for our holiday and have done so for many years. This is by far the best accommodation we have used. We are a four generation family of visitors, and we were all catered for. Loved it, loved it, loved it.

We stayed as a family of 10 during a wonderful week of sunny weather. The house was perfect. The bedrooms were all very comfortable and the kitchen/living area were spacious. We loved the location. It was about 10 mins walk to the beach and only 2 mins to the great pub at the end of the road.

Wonderful accommodation, close to the marshes and coast. Extremely spacious and yet cosy. Very useful attached but separate double room with kitchenette. Spotlessly clean with every piece of equipment possible. Just a lovely place for a family gathering, which we are all hoping to come back to.

The cottage was gorgeous - even better than the photos on the website. It was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. The welcome package of wine and cake was an added bonus.

As a three generation group of nine adults-plus the dog- we found Cumfus Bottom very comfortable and beautifully appointed. The quadrangle layout added to the air of spaciousness and allowed for quiet corners to be found if needed. Do Norfolk Cottages always lay on the fine and sunny weather in February which we enjoyed? That was impressive too.
